robert said...: Thanks for linking to a version of the hymn "Be Thou My Vision." It caught my eye this morning because today is the birthday of Donald Hustad, who arranged an old Irish folk melody to become the tune called Slane, used with the hymn.

If you enjoy reading about our hymns and their authors, I invite you to check out my daily blog on the subject, Wordwise Hymns.

And if you’ll excuse a brief “commercial:” With the arrival of fall, we begin to think of the Christmas season up ahead. If you do not have a good book on the subject of our Christmas carols, I encourage you to take a look at mine, Discovering the Songs of Christmas. In it, I discuss the history and meaning of 63 carols and Christmas hymns. The book is available through Amazon, or directly from Jebaire Publishing. (Might make a great gift too!); 10:53 PM
